Open Top container:
a convenient solution for your cargo

Fast and efficient transportation of bulky or heavy goods has always been a key aspect of logistics solutions. One of the most versatile options is the Open Top container, which provides easy access and quick loading due to the possibility of removing the container roof.

Technical characteristics of the Open Top container

  1. Dimensions and volume:
    — Length: 20 to 40 feet.
    — Width: approximately 8 feet.
    — Height: The open top of the container allows for cargo to be loaded with a height greater than a standard container – up to 9 feet or more.
  2. Weight:
    — The weight of an empty container depends on the size, but the average weight range is from 2,200 to 4,500 kilograms.
    — The load capacity allows for the transportation of cargo weighing between 28,000 and 30,000 kilograms.

    — The open top is one of the key features. The ability to open and close the top of the container allows for quick loading and unloading of bulky goods.
  4. Ventilation:
    — Ventilation holes provide excellent air circulation, making the container ideal for transporting goods that require additional ventilation.
